[TxMt] LaTeX getting started?

[Brad Miller]

Thomas,

www.tug.org  is the website for the tex users group.  There are a couple
tutorials there:
http://www.tug.org/tutorials/tugindia/
http://www.tug.org/tutorials/lshort/lshort.pdf

You can also google for latex tutorial and gets tons of them.

Using TM one easy way to go is to create a document using one of the latex
templates.  Try the article template.  Save it and press cmd-R

You can modify the \title{}  and \author{} commands and then try typing some
stuff below \section{Introduction}

You can start to explore a bit more with the Latex Bundle menu to see
formatting options.

Drag and drop a picture of pdf diagram into the document to see how figures
are included in a document.
